As America celebrates 250 years, on Day 2 of the Kentucky Electric Cooperatives Washington Youth Tour, part of the national Electric Cooperative Youth Tour, we introduced the delegation to two old friends, Thomas Jefferson and George Washington.
Touring Thomas Jefferson's Monticello and ...George Washington's Mount Vernon, we walked in the footsteps of our founding fathers, imagined their lives and the decisions they made, and spent time learning more about our nation and each other.
God Bless America!
